Chapter Twelve

Sophie's Pov ~ 

As I laughed loudly in the small Ben & Jerry's restaurant, a few heads turned our way. Jake was telling me some story about him and Josh from when they were about ten years old. 

"Tell me that that didn't happen," I said in between laughs. 

"Yes, believe it or not, it actually happened," he replied, laughing now. "I was so stupid back then."

When he was ten years old, he was at the community swimming pool. You see, back then, he had a crush on the life guard, even though she was twice his age. Everyday, he would meet Josh there just so he could see Jasmine (the life guard). One day, he saw her talking to some other guy who was probably her age. When he saw them kiss, he got furious and decided to jump off the high-dive to try to impress her. Unfortunately, his plan backfired and he ended up being pushed off the diving board and belly-flopping into the pool. Yeah, I know, painful. Sadly, his over sized swimming trunks came off under water, and Jasmine and her friend laughed at him, along with the rest of the people around. 

I know, it was a sad story, but you can't blame me for laughing! I mean, his swimming trunks came off for crying out loud!

"Yes, yes you were!" I continued laughing. I finally cooled down a bit and took another bite of my cookies  n' cream ice cream.

"Hey!" he smacked my arm.

"You were the one who said it first! You can't blame me!" I chuckled, thinking back on the story.

"I didn't expect you to agree with me! I thought you were going to say something like: Aw...No you weren't, you were just a kid. Or: Don't worry you're much hotter and awesomer now! So basically, you just called me stupid."

"If I said that I would be lying. Number one: You called yourself stupid too, and number two: 'awesomer' is not a word."

"You didn't not disagree to saying I'm hotter!" he said cheerily.

"That makes no sense, Jake."

"DON'T DENY IT!"

Gosh, this boy is hyper today! "Okay, I think that's enough ice cream for you!" I said, taking his bowl and sliding it across the table. I took a bite of the brownie that was at the bottom. THIS IS SO DELICIOUS!

"Hey, give it back!" he whined. 

"Nope! You can have this instead." Sliding my ice cream across the table to him, his face scrunched up in disgust.

"No thanks. It has your nasty girl germs on it." He pushed it back towards me with one finger, as if it were contaminated or something. 

"Fine then. More for me!"

"You sound so fat when you say that," he commented. 

"Gee, thanks. That's a new way to boost up a girl's self esteem. Just call her fat."

His smile faltered as he replied, "Sorry..."

I took the chance to fling a piece of ice cream at his face. "Never call a girl fat even if she is, got it?"

Taking the ice cream off of his face with his index finger, he licked it. "Got it."

"Okay, good. Now, I'm full." I pushed his ice cream back to him. "Here, you can have it now."

He sighed, "You contaminated it. It's not worthy enough for my mouth anymore."

"Okay, I guess I'll just throw it away then..." Walking over to the trash can with his ice cream, I was about to throw it away...3...2...1...Now.

"NO!!!'' He rushed over to me and took it out of my hands. "It's okay, the mean, old lady wont hurt you now..." He looked up at me and glared. "How dare you!"

I burst out laughing. This guy is pathetic. "You shouldn't hold ice cream like it's a baby. I think that shows that there is something wrong with you." I was laughing again when I saw a tall figure tower over me...

"Excuse me, but I have to ask you two to leave," the tall man said sternly.

"And who are you!?" Jake asked, stepping forward.

"The manager."

Jake instantly backed away a bit. "And why are we being kicked out?" I asked. I bet he doesn't even have a good reason!

"You see those elderly women over there?" He pointed to three old women. I swear, it looked like they could possibly drop dead at any moment....No offense. I glared at them as he continued, "Well, they complained and said you were being such a nuisance. So please leave."

The last thing I remember was Jake flicking some ice cream at the man's face with a spoon before we were being chased out of the small shop. Luckily, the man was really out of shape, so we both out ran him easily. 

"Well, that was a close one," I breathed, trying to catch my breath. 

"You're telling me..."

"Why'd you flick ice cream at him!?"

"He got annoying, so why not?" He smiled down at me, showing off his dimples. Every time he smiled, I had to smile. It was so contagious!

"I guess we should try to find Josh and Kayla now?" I suggested.

Running his hand through his hair, he replied, "Yeah, that's a good idea. Come on."

I pulled out my phone and quickly dialed Kayla's phone number. She didn't answer. What the heck was she doing!? Kayla always answers her phone. Especially when it's me!

"She didn't answer?"

"Nope! Come on, let's go to her house. She's probably there watching Avatar for the billionth time," I replied, walking to where we parked.

"Wait!" he said, taking hold of my arm. "We don't have a car, Josh probably took it."

Crap! "We should still look. They might still be here, you never know."

"Okay..." We walked to where the car should've been, but it was obviously not here. Hence the word 'should've'.

"I guess we just have to call a cab or something," I said. 

"Yeah, I guess so." After he waved down a taxi driver, I gave the driver directions to Kayla's house.

"Thank you," Jake said as he paid the driver. I got out of the car and walked to Kay's front door. Yep, Josh's car was parked out front. 

What the heck could they be doing? I bet Kayla forced him to watch Avatar with her. No matter what, Kayla loved that movie. Every time, she laughed at how they are blue and 'too tall'. Every time she watched it, she cried at the end. It never got old to her. 

I knocked on the door, waiting patiently for her to open it. When she didn't answer, I rang the door bell twice.

Still no answer!

Placing my hand on the knob, I twisted it, and surprisingly, it was open! I glanced back at Jake, signalling to come in. 

"Kayla what the heck ar—" I stopped talking as I saw them both lying on the couch. Kayla was on top of a shirtless Josh as they chewed each other's faces off. "What the heck!?" I screeched, making Kayla look up at me slowly, then back down at Josh.

Her eyes widened as she fell off the couch. She quickly recovered and stood up. "It's not what it looks like! Oh my gosh! I was just making out with Josh!" She turned to him, "We were just making out!!"

"No, you guys were not making out. YOU WERE EATING EACH OTHER'S FACES!!!" Josh gave me a questioning look. "Look, I'm, still surprised, okay!? How did this happen!"

Josh ran a hand though his hair. "Well, I'm not actually sure....We were just walking on the beach, talking. Next thing I know, we were here..."

"Yeah, because that was a great explanation," Jake said sarcastically.

I chuckled. "I'm with Jake on this one, that sucked." A few seconds of silence passed before I spoke again. "So are you two....?"

"Uh, I don't know..." Kayla said. Her face reddened and she looked like a freaking tomato. She looked up at Josh. 

"So you don't want to be?" Josh asked. 

"Do you!?"

"I guess." Kayla ran over to him and started sucking on his face again like she would die without it.

I couldn't help but smile at the two of them. Ah, young love these days. 

Yes, you guys can hate me for this sucky chapter....BUT it would mean a lot if you didn't! xD So what'd you guys think?? And yeah, I uploaded quickly because I was SUPER bored, and had nothing better to do....:D Kk, bye!! Xx
